Core Competency Reflection
I know that my digital footprint can have both positive and negative consequences, including…so I adjust my actions to try to leave as little of a footprint as possible, i don’t have a ton of social media and even with the ones i do have i private my account so only family members can see my account.
I make digital ethical choices such as not posting/commenting negative things on other people, not supporting discriminatory remarks and groups in order to keep my social media clean, and just keep my mental health intact.
Some of my preferred strategies for maintaining a healthy, balanced online presence include, limiting the amount of time i spend on social media, keeping my accounts private and not posting helps me keep my digital footprint clean.
